As the meadow and forest deepen in colour through autumn, the material character of Vinhuset comes into sharper relief.
Solid wood structures, brick, planted roofs and restrained façades place the building in close conversation with the terrain. Changes in level, projecting volumes and low rooflines break down the scale of the architecture, while the material palette takes on different tones as light and weather shift through the season.
The building does not rely on imitation of the landscape. Its connection comes through weight, texture, weathering and the way its volumes sit against the ground, allowing architecture and season to register alongside one another.

Vinhuset combines muted changing rooms, a hamam and warm bathing spaces with a long heated outdoor pool set along the edge of the meadow.
Tiled floors, wood cabinetry and subdued lighting establish a restrained interior character, while the sequence of bathing spaces moves gradually between enclosure, warmth and open air. The experience is physical and immediate, shaped by changes in temperature, acoustics, texture and exposure.
Outside, the pool opens towards the forest and, further across the estate, @restaurangang. From the water, the meadow, restaurant and tree line remain continuously present, extending the visual field of the spa and placing the bathing experience directly within the wider landscape of @astadvingard.

FOREST CONVERSATIONS OPENS TOMORROW
Across two spaces in Tokyo, Forest Conversations follows a material journey from the forest into the objects and environments we live with.
At KARIMOKU RESEARCH CENTER, the story begins with the forest itself: with growth, time, transformation, and materials carrying traces of the lives and processes that came before their finished form.
At Karimoku Commons Tokyo, The Case Archive follows this journey into furniture and architecture. Through selected cases, objects, drawings, models and material studies, the exhibition reveals how a particular place can become the starting point for a piece of furniture, and how that piece may continue beyond its original setting as part of a wider collection.
Seen together, the two exhibitions form one continuous narrative, from living material to crafted object, and from individual place to enduring design.
明日から、東京の2つの拠点で開催される『Forest Conversations』は、森から生まれ、私たちが共に暮らす家具や空間へと至る素材の軌跡をたどる展覧会です。
KARIMOKU RESEARCH CENTER では、物語の起点である「森そのもの」に焦点を当てます。木々の成長や流れる時間、姿の変化、そして完成形に至るまでの生命の営みやプロセスの痕跡を宿した素材そのものをご紹介します。
Karimoku Commons Tokyoで開催される『The Case Archive』では、その軌跡が家具や建築へと結実していくプロセスを追います。厳選された事例や実際のプロダクト、ドローイング、模型、素材研究の展示を通じて、特定の場所を出発点として生まれた家具が、本来の空間を超えてどのようにコレクションへと展開されていくのかを紐解きます。
二つの展示を通じて、生命ある素材から手仕事による造形へ、そして固有の場所から時代を超えるデザインへと紡がれる、ひと続きのストーリーを描き出します。

Vinhuset sits at the centre of Ästad Vingård as both destination and point of connection.
Reception, changing rooms, relaxation areas, yoga spaces, bar and spa are gathered within and around the building, while a colonnade leads further into the outdoor bathing landscape. A brick-clad steam room, hamam, warm pools and more secluded interiors create different conditions for heat, water, rest and recovery.
Together with Restaurant ÄNG and Sjöparken, Vinhuset adds another layer to the estate, allowing dining, bathing, landscape and accommodation to be experienced as parts of the same stay.

From our new base in Hong Kong, the contrasts of the region are immediate: dense urban fabric against subtropical vegetation, steep topography meeting the harbour, and architecture shaped by a climate and way of life very different from Copenhagen.
Establishing a permanent presence in APAC allows us to engage with these conditions at closer range. It brings us nearer to the clients, craftspeople and collaborators we work with, while creating more opportunities to understand local materials, building traditions and the everyday patterns that give a place its character.
For us, expanding into the region is as much about learning as it is about bringing our own perspective. Different climates, landscapes and architectural cultures offer new points of reference, informing how we think about shelter, openness, materiality and the relationship between interior and exterior.
Our Hong Kong studio marks a new chapter for Norm Architects, rooted in the same values as our Copenhagen practice while allowing those ideas to develop through closer contact with another part of the world.

We are honoured that Composed Matter has been nominated for Årets Spektakulære at the 2026 Design Awards by BO BEDRE, Bolig Magasinet and Scandinavian Living.
Presented during 3daysofdesign, the exhibition brought together @sould.dk, @motarasu_design and @sumum_belgium in a spatial composition centred on material, light and sensory perception. Custom works by @frk_vinthermartinsen and @theamandabetz, together with contributions by @signehytte and @isabelle_yamamoto, extended the material study across art, object and interior.
Through material explorations, artistic interpretations and architectural interventions, the exhibition reflected on the enduring value of natural materials, the poetry of light, and the intimate gestures through which we engage with our surroundings. Together, we worked to demonstrate how thoughtful design can move beyond visual expression to shape the way we feel, inhabit and relate to the spaces around us.

The Art of Less turns its attention to the decisions that precede the finished work.
Through conversations with the artists, architects and designers featured in the book, we look closely at how a practice takes shape: where an idea begins, how material and intuition influence its development, what is removed along the way, and how one eventually recognises that a work has reached its point of completion.
The apparent simplicity of the final result often holds a far more complex process of testing, hesitation, repetition and refinement. Across disciplines, each practitioner approaches this differently, yet a similar question persists: how much is necessary for an idea to retain its full weight?
These glimpses into the studio form an essential part of The Art of Less, revealing reduction as something arrived at through sustained attention rather than a predetermined visual language.

Minimalism holds a depth that goes beyond what meets the eye. In our newly released book, The Art of Less, we explore minimalism as a sensory and intellectual practice, where restraint sharpens our awareness of materiality, texture and the subtle qualities that shape our sensory experience of space.
Through conversations with 20 contemporary artists, designers and architects, the book explores how reduction is not about emptiness, but presence.
Among the voices featured is architect Tatsuro Miki, who reflects on simplifying a space while preserving what gives it meaning. As he puts it, “To remove, one must know what to remove.” Ultimately, restraint allows the qualities of a place to speak for themselves.

In our new publication, The Art of Less, Jonas Bjerre-Poulsen and Sarah Dorweiler bring together 20 artistic, architectural and design practices to examine how restraint can deepen perception and enrich everyday experience. Organised around balance, contrast, materiality, rhythm and space, the book moves between disciplines, from architecture by Álvaro Siza and John Pawson to the elemental work of Lee Ufan and the material investigations of Christian + Jade.
Through conversations with the featured practitioners, the book looks closely at how creative work begins, what is questioned along the way, and how simplicity can emerge from a process of editing, intuition and precision.
At its core, The Art of Less proposes that thoughtful reduction can create room for a richer encounter with the world, allowing material, light, proportion and use to be felt with greater clarity.

At Sjöparken in @astadvingard, water is part of the architecture’s spatial order.
The surrounding surface reflects the façades, rooflines and repeated structural elements, effectively doubling their geometry and extending the rhythm of the buildings into the landscape. At the same time, daylight reflected from the water is cast back into the interiors, where it moves across ceilings and walls as the water shifts outside.
The exchange between built form, water and light gives the project a changing visual register throughout the day. The architecture remains precise and measured, while reflection introduces movement, depth and continual variation.

Shoreline Studio sits in the coastal landscape of Odsherred as a secluded atelier for long periods of focused work during seasonal stays.
The building draws on the Danish summerhouse tradition through its thatched roof, brick flooring, timber framing and reclaimed beams, while layered thresholds, filtered daylight and carefully placed openings reflect a parallel interest in Japanese spatial sensibility.
Inside, a single volume is shaped by changing light, proportion and the softened acoustics of the thatched roof. A skylight draws daylight deep into the room, while the restrained interior keeps attention on the act of working and the landscape beyond.
The result is a modest building with a strong sense of purpose: a place for work, withdrawal and sustained attention, rooted in both local building traditions and the landscape around it.

At Heatherhill Beach House, the bathing spaces offer an enclosed counterpoint to the openness of the main living areas.
Here, the experience becomes more inward and tactile. Timber, stone and softly textured surfaces are paired with carefully positioned openings that maintain a connection to the surrounding landscape while preserving privacy. The smaller proportions and material solidity give the rooms a sense of shelter, tying the act of bathing to the slower rhythms of life at the summerhouse.
As elsewhere in the house, the architecture is considered in close relation to the body and its movement through space, giving everyday rituals a distinct place within the experience of the home.
